An Unknown Welshman: A novel of Henry VII Kindle Edition
“The red dragon shall triumph over the Saxons and the red rose rule in splendour.”
In the prophecies of the Welsh bards, young Henry Tudor is the legendary King who will lead them to deliverance. And bring the treacherous Wars of the Roses to an end.
The sense of his destiny haunts him as his boyhood is spent being helplessly shuttled between his Yorkist and Lancastrian guardians and in friendless exile in Brittany.
When his supporters in England urge him to release them from the tyranny of Richard III, he returns to conquer not only Richard’s troops at Bosworth Field but also the heart of the beautiful Elizabeth of York … and fulfil the prophecy that the white rose and the red would be united under one crown.
An Unknown Welshman is a thrilling fictionalised biography of Henry VII, the first Tudor King: a war & military historical saga bringing medieval England to life.

‘I can’t praise An Unknown Welshman enough. Brilliantly put together and faithful to the actual story’ – Nathen Amin, author of Tudor Wales

- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2018Format: KindleHistorical fiction is a favorite of mine,a as are the Tudors,so this book was an excellent choice for me. I highly recommend the book as well as the author..
- Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2019Format: KindleMany thanks to Sapere Books and Jean Stubbs for the ARC in exchange for my unbiased review. Book traces the life of Henry Tudor from birth to his marriage to Elizabeth of York as Henry VII. He survived much upheaval in his youth. Surprising he wasn't cast in the tower and left to rot or mortally injured during a skirmish. He seemed a right rational, pragmatic young man who knew how to play his cards right. Patient until the end .I thought this was a great book to introduce a reader to the young life of Henry VII. Nothing fancy or overly researched, but one gets to know him all the same. Now I have to wonder if this will be a duology or trilogy? King Henry lived quite a long time. I think Stubbs should go for it!

Format: KindleVerified PurchasePerseverance required to carry on reading. Pleased I did eventually get into the mode and style of speech. This in the end, made it more believable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good read
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseWell written and enjoyable to read by any person who is interested in the history of this time.
Characters brought to life, but a list of main ones and perhaps a family tree of the royals would be helpful while reading this book.
